I have had my computer ' tidied up' last week. Now I cannot access the forum without having to login every time. I am sure that I did not need to do that prior to last week.
Can someone point me in the right direction please.

It would help if you could say what system and browser you are using.

Alternatively consider using something like Lastpass - you can have really complex passwords and keep all your log passwords secure
and it's free...

I have followed your instructions, thank you. But it has not made any difference.

The instruction in 5 Keep local data only until you quit your browser will allow you to go in and out of Fun without logging on only until you quit Chrome at which time the cookie will be deleted.
You need to set the option Allow local data to be set (recommended). This will keep all cookies and you will need to "Manage" the deletions of unwanted ones seperatel.

I assume you are ticking the 'stay logged in' button before clicking log in !
